Can I still use my product to print black only if the color cartridge is empty?

• You cannot print if either ink cartridge is empty. Leave the empty cartridge installed in the printer until you have obtained a replacement. Otherwise the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out. It's best to always have an extra cartridge on hand. When you need new ink cartridges, contact your dealer or call the EPSON Store (tm) at (800) 873-7766.
